In this episode of the Muscle Intelligence Podcast, Ben Pakulski sits down with Dr. Scott Sherr to uncover the hidden drivers of burnout, fatigue, and accelerated aging. Together they explore how trauma, sympathetic overdrive, and mitochondrial dysfunction silently undermine performance and recovery. Dr. Sherr explains why 94% of adults have impaired mitochondrial health and how tools like methylene blue, metabolomic testing, and hyperbaric therapy can reset energy production at the cellular level. Whether you're a high-performing executive or simply someone feeling stuck in stress mode, this conversation provides a blueprint for balancing your nervous system, reclaiming energy, and extending healthspan.

5 Bullet Points:

• How trauma traps your nervous system in overdrive
• The link between mitochondria and lasting energy
• Daily practices to reset stress physiology
• Methylene blue's role in cellular performance
• Why longevity starts with cellular optimization
